Re:
This bike was obviously so good that they constantly upgraded it as it was on a par with, if not better than, more modern bikes.
They were obviously so proud of their technological achievement that they didn’t even need to used top end parts for this to be on the cutting edge of performance. They stuck with 92LX for fear that XT would make this bike TOO good and render all other bikes obsolete.
This is Museum quality, a benchmark that all others will be forever measured on
